Chapter 463 – Elixir (1)
Those who lost their minds after being released from the brainwashing state soon regained their senses.
There were some individual differences.
The longer the period of brainwashing, the longer it took for them to wake up.
Those who woke up barely remembered what they had done during the period of brainwashing.
Occasionally, there were some people who remembered a fragment of a memory, but it was only a fragment.
As a result, they had to experience a severe sense of separation.
In a way, it was natural.
Think about it.
I think I lost consciousness for a moment and then woke up, but what would it be like to hear that hundreds of days, or even years, had passed?
I even heard that he wasn’t losing his mind, but was doing all kinds of sinful things at the orders of others, so the mental shock wouldn’t be something he could easily endure.
Therefore, the government and the association quickly changed their status to victims and provided them with psychiatric treatment.
They tried to raise their image by announcing this at an official event and at the same time saying that they would actively support them so that they can quickly return to their original lives, but their attention was elsewhere.
“Who on earth?”
Who was the main character who destroyed the Gwangmyeong Bridge hidden in Daejeon?
Accordingly, they could not reveal the name of the Guardians without permission, so they introduced the Orthodox Church of the Vatican as the main player in the eradication of Gwangmyeong Bridge.
It was not a lie as most of those who actually participated in the operation were Holy Knights dispatched from the Vatican.
If I had said this far, the association and the government might have been criticized once again.
“What on earth did the association and the government do to eliminate villains hiding in Korea?”
…
But they also had self-rescue measures.
A Korean who participated in the operation with the Holy Knights of the Vatican Orthodox Church.
Kim Do-jin and Son Seo-yeon.
The moment the names of the two people were revealed, they were met with tremendous praise.
“Kim Do-jin, is it you again?”
“Son Seo-yeon… “You’re Hunter Son Si-woo’s daughter, right?”
“Mom, dad and daughter…, This is truly a family of heroes.”
Praise for Kim Do-jin was natural.
Because what he has shown so far is at a level that surpasses that of Son Si-woo in his youth.
The name that came up the most for this incident was definitely Son Seo-yeon.
“And… “She has good skills and is even very pretty.”
“They say a decent idol should go away?”
“I can’t take my eyes off the photo…”
Although she is a bit lacking compared to Kim Do-jin, her career was also brilliant.
A class A hunter in his early 20s.
Even major cases that have been handled since then.
Through this incident, the things she had calmly accumulated were reexamined, and wings were attached to her back.
And because of her performance, the names of her parents, Son Si-woo and Han Ju-hee, also went up and down.
They say that everyone should imitate their education policy as they are born as the sons and daughters of heroes and their performance contrasts with the second generation who look like idiots.
Son Seo-yeon, who became as popular as Kim Do-jin overnight, was embarrassed to see my article plastered all over the Internet.
“And…, What is all this… ?”
My name is on all kinds of portal sites.
Internet articles, rankings of popular search terms, and even communities where articles are posted on all kinds of topics.
It’s all just my story.
“… Ah.”
Various emotions are swirling.
I felt good, embarrassed, and scared.
While trying to control my wild emotions, I was flipping through internet articles one by one.
One comment caught her eye.
ㄴYeonjin Couple Jonber: Don’t Kim Do-jin and Son Seo-yeon look good together? The perfect couple;;
The number of recommended comments approaching hundreds made her heart melt.
“Couple…”
They are a couple.
Kim Do-jin, and she said that they look so good standing together.
Those who responded to her comment also generally agreed.
Why?
“… Hehe.”
That comment feels more pleasant than the dozens or hundreds of articles praising her.
Son Seo-yeon’s ‘Yeon’ and Kim Do-jin’s ‘Jin’.
‘Yeonjin Couple’ was created by taking the last letters of the two names.
And the ‘acting couple Jonberdan’, who wants it to become a reality, gives her strength.
“It’s going just as I thought…” .”
Mom and Dad too.
I heard that they are starting to become connected like now.
They fought with each other fiercely, but their teamwork worked well, and they worked together as a team for a long time.
Then, naturally, the names of the two people came up and down, and they became one.
She thought she, too, was going through that process.
“Okay, let’s have dinner together next time… ?”
It was a time when I was excited and imagining having dinner together in a nice place.
“Son Seo-yeon! You did such a dangerous thing again without telling your mother… !”
Through the article, I heard the cries of Han Ju-hee, who found out that her daughter had gotten into a dangerous job.
“Hi… !”
She wrapped herself in a blanket and waited for the raging typhoon to calm down.

Elixir.
It is known as the best elixir in existence in name and reality, but it is also the least studied elixir.
The reason is simple.
There are no items for sale.
It’s not enough for researchers to kill enough animals to chew, open, taste, and enjoy.
I managed to get a bottle, so no matter how sparingly I use it, it doesn’t work.
Because.
“This is the elixir.”
“…”
The amount was not much.
At first, I suspected it was a saint because there was a small bottle in the center of the large box.
“… “You didn’t give me less because you didn’t feel like giving the whole bottle, right?”
“Is that possible?”
It still remains in my memory.
The paladin’s expression looked like I was crazy.
Anyway.
The amount is that small.
In terms of capacity, it is approximately 10ml.
Just looking at the sheep can make you laugh, but when you see it in front of you, you can’t help it.
“… It’s enormous.”
I can see it.
The texture of deep magical power concentrated to the extreme within it.
To use a metaphor, it feels like a huge elephant has been squeezed into a refrigerator.
This means that it is a concentration that makes no sense.
“I have to be careful when using it.”
The person to use is determined.
Baek Hyun-ah’s younger brother, Baek Hyun-jin.
Because of her congenital magical power deficiency, her core is much smaller than that of an ordinary person.
Therefore, it is necessary to administer the medication very carefully to prevent excessive magical power from harming the body.
Until the elixir improves her body and grows into a sufficiently sized core.
After carefully returning the fluttering bottle of elixir to the box, I raise her body.
“… Let’s go right away.”
She goes straight to the hospital because her ox horn is also missing because of her sweetness.
Actually, that is not the only reason.
“You have to endure it, you have to endure it, you have to endure it.”
Every time I see the elixir, my stomach makes a huge noise.
Gurgling!
A hunger as strong as the sound.
This was not a hunger caused by my body, but by gluttony.
They clamor for a delicacy that will taste heavenly.
To stop this, he hits her in the stomach hard with his fist and warns her.
“I know that if I gurgle one more time, I won’t be able to eat anything.”
Gurgling…
The noise and hunger subside.
It’s a shame that they organized the ranks once, otherwise the chaos would have continued.
Arrive at the hospital and head straight to the special ward.
She was a skinny woman lying dead on a hospital bed wearing an oxygen respirator.
“… “This is ridiculous.”
A situation in which people are surviving on minimal nutrition and magical power.
Perhaps that’s why her body was so thin that it reminded me of a mummy.
I can’t think of any words that can describe her as she is now than her expression that she is holding her breath.
“… I feel sorry for you.”
Baek Hyun-ah also lived watching her dying younger brother.
Baek Hyeon-jin, who lost her mind and collapsed during her prime, barely survived.
Both sides are pitiful.
It touched my heart even more because I knew the pain it felt when a family member who was more precious than her life was sick.
But she wasn’t that sad.
“That also ends today.”
The long-suffering of the sister who tormented her sister will come to an end starting today.
I lightly pinch her skinny face.
“I think it’s all thanks to her sister, you brat.”
The price of my life is this high.
I take out her elixir from the box she cherished and remove the plug that was tightly clogging her snout.
Hugs!
Dense magical power flows out from the open spout while making a cheerful sound.
“Ugh… !”
Just smelling it makes me feel stronger.
Suppressing my increasingly excited emotions, I take off her oxygen respirator for a moment and open her mouth slightly.
At the same time, tilt the elixir bottle and drip a drop into her mouth.
A liquid that goes around in a dry mouth and disappears.
Soon, a reaction begins to appear in the body.
Suuuuuw
The abundant amount of magical power contained in a single drop of liquid swells greatly within her body.
“Uh…, It shouldn’t be like this.”
It’s embarrassing.
The amount of magical power contained in one drop is several times greater than I thought.
It’s dangerous to do this.
“Why is there no easy way?”
Did demons come into your life in exchange for a young body? .
“Excuse me for a moment.”
She sighs softly and places her hand over her heart.
The small core is already filled with magical power, and it’s pounding as if it’s going to explode at any moment.
In order to stabilize this, we forcibly intervene in the flow of magic power that flows freely.
Manipulating magical power is one of my specialties.
As I begin to control the flow of magical power, starting with my tremendous grip, stability quickly comes to my body.
Just keep controlling the flow like this and give the core time to grow.
“… “It is true.”
I become greedy.
It’s a red skirt at best. It’s a new life that I barely found, so shouldn’t I live it with excitement?
“I’ll pay you some interest, okay?”
Although his body is a bit larger, his weakened body remains the same as it was during his long struggle with illness.
Seoyeon’s body as a child was so weak that even the hospital couldn’t tell.
Even if you treat the congenital magical power deficiency with elixir in this condition, it will take quite a long time to regain strength in your weakened body.
I have a secret solution to this problem.
The secret art of transformation.
The power that reshaped my daughter, who was weak, and this body with ugly muscles.
“It’s worth it.”
No, in fact, the conditions are better than then.
The enormous amount of magical power from the elixir will support the secret arts.
I lightly touch my forehead, which is starting to come to life little by little, and whisper.
“Hold on a little. Then I’ll let you run around and play right away.”
As soon as he finishes speaking, he forcibly manipulates magical power.
Plop!
The sound of the first bone shattering resonated clearly in my ears and throughout the hospital room.
